Shariah law is kinder, cut off the hand of the thief, then let hm go.
Old English Common Law would have also spared him the misery of jail for decades. The penalty for Larceny was execution. Under the English system a much lower portion of the GNP was spent on housing inmates and there were few overcrowded prisons.as 9 other crime categories also carried a death penalty.
Well I am reasonably convinced you aren't a gold digger. I suspect it is a repeating problem with men in Arab countries where since the date was not arranged by parents, then the woman must be a loose woman.
Not a threat. The funds ARE cut. Now let China fund it. LoL, China going to be doing a lot of payouts not too far in the future. Now, per the Constitution President Trump will next suspend both houses of Congress if they don't get off their collective, cowardly rears and confirm or vote no on some nominees. Take that Pelosi.
Whether or not an immune system over reacts is dependent on many factors. Physical fitness, nutrition, general health, the presence of immune response suppressants, etc.
Because my location sells gasoline and food it is labeled essential. Though in truth one of our most popular products these past few weeks is toilet paper. We had to limit it to 2 rolls per vehicle least a vehicle with 6 occupants buy 12 and empty a shelf space. But it moves briskly, so do the bottles of bleach. We have a few customers wearing surgi masks and gloves but only a very small percentage. I purchased dozen packs of N95 disposable respirators and donated them to my coworkers and the franchise owner, but Southland (aka 7 Eleven) policy forbids wearing them in the store as it may upset the customers. The corporation is about 5 weeks behind in it's thinking. Oh well. Like I wrote, I may already have the antibodies and certainly have experienced breathing the same air as literally hundreds of coughing and sneezing customers since early February. I had a good coworker make it her last day a few days ago when someone about to hand her some dollar bills suddenly sneezed and covered with the same hand as the dollar bills, then handed them to her. 2 years there, but she said afterwards call me when the Covid stuff stops and went home to collect the $600 per week unemployment Congress gave out this weekend for folks scared to work. Since she lives with her little son and her grandmother one can not blame her. My franchise owner is worried. There is no one to take it (the store) over if the owner gets sick and it will shut down if that happens. But the nature of the business and the difficulty in hiring a new person at 9 an hour in competition with a govt weekly handout of 600 per week (28 an hour) for those who stay home ensures the owner has to be there 12 hours a day, 7 days a week at least. I am blessed that as long as I have salt and gasoline I don't really need civilization. I bought my property as a fully self sufficient Y2K retreat and for a simple plague it is just as good. Deer, turkey, edible plants, safe water supply, generators, solar panels, etc. One or two of my female customers have been here and over an apertif on the deck I can see some gears turning as they think, hmmm. Then the next day they go to work and back to their apartments, but I have a suspicion who will be tapping at my door if it gets bad.
Of course he will be the next President. The Dems have had their circus (noting they were calling for his impeachment before he was even sworn in). The Senate has already announced they will not support the impeachment. All the Dem front runners know they have 0 chance of success if Trump is still the President, and he will be. Most of the country (in spite of phony (Dem sponsored) media polls) supports Donald and agrees with a lot of the things he says. Hopefully the Dems once they realize the reality they will simply emigrate to countries more in tune with their thinking such as Nicaragua, North Korea or China and Haiti.. Canada has already said they don't want them. Even Mexico would require them to have an income so the other countries I named are their best options Hillary can run for President against Ortega. That will be a fun contest to watch.
If you drive in snow storms enough, sooner or later the car will get stuck and then you wander in the snow. Sometimes in search of a phone booth or a garage, and sometimes you just begin the long walk home and hope they don't find your frozen corpse in the morning. At least a dozen times I have had to trudge through snow. Only once on a Christmas though, but twice on a New Years. It isn't too bad if the snow is 2 feet deep or less, but when it is more than 40 inches of snow it is important to be dressed properly with good insulated boots and warm gloves under your mittens and with a hat that covers your ears. BTW, sometimes it is a good idea to leave a note on the car telling who ever finds it which way you were headed. Just in case you don't make it and they have to find you.
I am still here, still sitting at the entrance of the Abyss while Uriel is off cavorting with Lilith. On the home front the ignition switch on my Ford froze and snapped again. Fortunately one of the women working at the 711 with me has taken pity and picks me up at 4:30am to bring me to work and brings me home afterwards too. Yes, that is a long way from cooking me dinner, but it is much better than walking. The Red Wolves are back in the area, I heard them howling the other night while standing outside waiting for my ride. I am torn between setting out some bait on my land and terminating them here, or should I get a neighbor's permission to run the op on his land so as to not ure them to my lands? I lean towards the second choice, but the neighbors don't want them on their lands either. As 3D metal printing drops in price the quality of the print is also rising. W can now 3D print with metals that reach 37 Rockwell hardness. That is still short of the 50s some projects require, but a lot higher than the numbers seen only 2 years ago. I am enjoying HBOs remake of the Watchmen. I am also enjoying the Good Doctor. And awaiting the new Star Trek series, Piccard. Yes, I too am still single.
Absolutely. They wrote it, therefore they are alive. Dead people do not compose, write then publish poetry. In fact of about 10,000 dead authors (I am sure there are more, but I never met many of them) I know of, not a single one of them wrote not even a single word once they had died.
So yet another category of personal non achievment is disclosed to go with the lack of military service or even public service. We can now add to the resume couldn't / wouldn't make it not even as a Boy Scout applicant.
I can not argue with your statement there is no question that the Democratic run states have way more homicides than do the Republican ones. Democratic is a failed philosophy run amok.
Incomprehensible literary style aside we will concur the ancient Roman military did invent at least one thing which most of us still use daily. I refer of course to foot wear, aka shoes. It gave huge advantage to traversing rough terrain.
